Carline Information
Carline Morning Logistics at 8:45am
We use two different doors for morning carline. The bus students will be dropped off at the back playground door.
Preschool families – Please park in the back playground lot and walk your student to their classroom using the ramp door. If you also have a K-8 sibling, please walk your K-8 students to the playground ramp door where a staff person will greet your K-8 student where they can then proceed to their classroom.
K-8 families – Please enter the IHM church lot from Mayview Road via the second (south) entrance. Form a line heading toward the church and snake around to the main school office door to drop off your student. This will give us more space for the line while keeping cars off of Excelsior and Mayview. Our front school doors will have a staff person to greet students from 8:45am-9:00am. Anyone arriving late will need to park in the visitor spots and enter through the front office door to sign your student in.

Further information on the lunch program is available in our handbook or you may contact the office.

“I am a volunteer from the IHM parish and have volunteered at NDA since its opening. Nowhere have I witnessed and felt a part of a more caring, loving, Christian family. I witness children being given such wonderful opportunities to learn and experience areas for not only academic and leadership growth but more importantly, their spiritual growth.”
– Parishioner
